Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Squamous Cell"

The purpose of this study is to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Decitabine plus Penpulimab as second-line therapy for advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma treated with PD-1 blockade

This project aims to organise the sampling of blood and tumor at key points of the standard of care of patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC). This will allow to identify new potential predictive biomarkers of efficacy of immunotherapy and to investigate the evolution of the tumoral microenvironment after successive systemic treatments.

To observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy or anlotinib in patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma previously Treated With First-line Immunotherapy

Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a blood-based test that measures dying or dead cancer cells that are already circulating in the blood. In this study, the investigators will enroll patients who are planning to receive surgery to remove their head and neck cancer. The investigators are interested to learn how ctDNA levels change with surgery and over the course of time. The investigators also want to determine if there are certain features of the tumor or the patient themselves that might cause ctDNA to be higher than other patients. Also, the investigators want to explore if the detection of ctDNA following surgery is related to cancer recurrence.

The entire treatment process is divided into two phases: Phase I SBRT combined with PD-1/CTLA-4 bispecific antibody (AK104) and Phase II AK104 single-agent maintenance therapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the outcomes and identify predictors of neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 plus chemotherapy in locally advanced resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In this single-center cohort study, we are aiming to (1) evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and survival benefits on patients with locally advanced resectable ESCC (cT3-4aN0-1M0); (2) evaluate the value of genomic indicators including MMR alternation status in predicting therapeutic responses and prognosis; (3) evaluate the value of transcriptomic indicators including B cell lineage features in predicting therapeutic responses and prognosis; (4) evaluate the value of microbial and metabolite indicators in predicting therapeutic responses and prognosis. Whole exome sequencing, RNA sequencing, 16S rRNA sequencing and Liquid Chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) of samples of patients to neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy before and after treatment are performed to explore the mechanisms of drug resistance and identification of predictive and prognosis biomarkers.

This is a single-arm, open, II phase study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Toripalimab + carboplatin + paclitaxel in 15 newly diagnosed patients with tracheal malignant tumors.

Radical radiotherapy for head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) can be administered to primary disease with curative intent. Residual disease, recurrence or further tumours may subsequently occur in this irradiated field. It is unknown whether these cancers reflect primary resistance or represent the evolution of resistance on treatment. Understanding this could allow stratification of patients to more effective primary treatments, such as transoral robotic surgery, or help tailor systemic therapies for these cancers in previously irradiated fields. RECUT+ is an exploratory molecular analysis study to assess the selective impact of radiation therapy on HNSCC. Participants will be recruited from the Royal Marsden Hospital (RMH), Chelsea, a tertiary referral H&N cancer unit in London, UK, specialising in transoral robotic surgery. Retrospective participants will be identified from previous Head and neck MDT lists at RMH. Prospective participants will be screened for by the RECUT+ team during the weekly H&N MDT meetings at the Royal Marsden Hospital (RMH). Blood/saliva samples will be collected pre operatively (prospective participants) and post operatively (retrospective and prospective participants) for germline and circulating tumour DNA analysis. Biopsy samples from the original cancer and resected specimens from the post radiotherapy residual/recurrent/new primary disease will undergo molecular analysis to assess for any selective impact of radiotherapy on these further tumours.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects, good and/or bad, of treating participants with HPV-mediated oropharyngeal cancer, with less treatment, using the new staging system. The investigators believe this treatment will provide the same effectiveness as the usual treatment, but decrease the side effects. The radiation doses, chemotherapy doses, and the type of surgical approaches that will be used in this treatment protocol have all been previously investigated. Previous research suggests that this can be done safely, but there has not been a study done basing treatment on the new staging system.

A unique approach for cancer treatment employing intratumoral diffusing alpha radiation emitter device (DaRT) as a treatment prior to additional radiation or chemo therapy.
